    It’s unsurprisingly one of those “can’t say much about it without ruining it” games, but suffice to say:

    It was very good and you should play it, but it was always going to be difficult for it to top the first one because you go into it having a fairly good idea of what’s going on.

    Also I just think this genre maybe works better with teenage characters than grown-ups, but that’s just me. 😁

    Currently in that “trying to decide what to play next” headspace… but for a bonus point, I think the thing I completed last was Oxenfree II.

    Anyone else wishing they could buy the entire Steam Visual Novel Fest? 🥺

    I picked up Who’s Lila?, Coffee Talk, and Tyrion Cuthbert: Attorney of the Arcane (despite not really being able to afford to 😬) and wish-listed a bunch of other stuff.



  • In the smouldering aftermath, some politicians, keen to shift the focus from social inequality, have muttered darkly about the role of BlackBerry Messenger, Twitter and Facebook – frightening new technologies that, like the pen and the human mouth, allow citizens to swap messages with one another. Some have even called for the likes of Twitter to be temporarily suspended in times of great national crisis. That’d be reassuring – like the scene at the start of a zombie movie where the news bulletin is suddenly replaced by a whistling tone and a stark caption reading PLEASE STAND BY. The last thing we need in an emergency is the ability to share information.

  • Never forget that the classic video game Lemmings is itself a British creation.

    This would be my pitch:

    Alternate version and transparent PNG

    Still an official™️ Lemmings skin tone, but one from a later game I guess, in the interest of inclusivity:

    Transparent PNG in case anyone wants to remix it:

    Easy, relevant banner idea

    Use a screenshot like this one, but decide what they’re queueing for. Greggs? Woolies? Half-price biscuits? The possibilities are endless.
